We've been reading some enjoyable books to the children recently. Not too long ago we finished the book Watership Down by Richard Adams. It is about a community of rabbits and the adventures they have. By watching the rabbits, you learn a lot about human nature. The book, which is both beautiful and exciting, is one which I highly recommend for children and adults alike.

Earlier in the year I finished reading to Matthew G.A. Henty's book The Young Carthaginian. It is well researched and really gives you a feel for life during the Punic Wars, in addition to being highly enjoyable and exciting. It's an especially good book for boys.
